For Maggie McKenzie, repairing a shattered life becomes more complicated when a stranger
takes up residence in the ruins of an old Florida estate with a macabre history. This stranger
brings with him a sinister magic and an obsession with the disturbed grave of a witch. Maggie's
troubled past becomes part of a larger, darker legacy of curses and bloody rituals, as well as a
variety of beasts, both human and supernatural, that will prey upon her and those she loves. The
Beasts of Vissaria County is a mix-tape of gothic horror, a love letter to weird fiction and dubbed
late-night horror films.

"One part hoodoo horror, one part Southern gothic with dark allusions stitched smartly into its
seams, Beasts of Vissaria County delivers on its promise of an exceptional tale of the 'dark
fantastic.'"
-Rebecca Rowland, author of The Horrors Hiding in Plain Sight

"Ford's Beasts of Vissaria County is Southern Gothic horror at its most atmospheric, creepy, and
compelling. A story filled with witchy history, little known legends, and horrific beasts only
Florida could boast, this slow-burn narrative will haunt you long after the last page is over."
- Gaby Triana, bestselling author of MOON CHILD, ISLAND OF BONES, and the Haunted
Florida series

"Mingling fiends and occult-fueled fun, Douglas Ford's The Beasts of Vissaria County is a
worthy exercise in honoring everything beloved in classic horror fiction."
- Clint Smith, author of The Skeleton Melodies

"A terrific, brisk read. A true love letter to the genre and the creatures we all love. Equal
parts Lords of Salem and Salem's Lot, with dashes of silent-era terror and warm, sun-baked
horror."
- Robert P. Ottone, author of Her Infernal Name & Other Nightmares
